You can totally find someone who will do that to you! Maybe even a couple so you can have both your fantasies. Write yourself an ad, post it, and meet somewhere neutral and public to plan and set guidelines. Maybe you can have them surprise you so you feel more like it's an unplanned thing. I'm excited for you; there are a lot of people into bdsm and you can totally achieve your dream sex life.

I think the typical American pronunciation is "skweerl", run together and not with distinct syllables. I pronounce it more like "square-L", which isn't quite British, but still has two syllables. In both case there are a lot of regional variations so it's sometimes hard to say what is "standard".

I do (and am not British). I'm not sure why; I've just always said it that way. But people do notice and remark on it, especially since I'm a big fan of my backyard squirrels. (I need an around the way squirrel, that's the one for me...)

You might want to let her know that that is one of the most frequently misquoted sentences in history. The actual quote is "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb". Means exactly the opposite of what most people think it does.

edit: you should care what it really means because it supports your point.

I suspect it's true just based on their names. Felix and Sylvester are both cartoon cats. They've caught a mouse (Maeve) but the mouse is toying with them. I could be way off but it always seemed too convenient to be a coincidence.

It's mostly a marketing thing. The cutoff years vary but If you were born in the mid-70s to mid-80s you are Gen X, through the late 90s you're a Millennial, and after that Gen Z. The biggest differences are which technology you grew up with.

It's true, we are terrible about caring for our elderly. But in the U.S., it's not necessarily the young Americans who care for their aging parents. It's immigrants. We import an entire caretaker class. We really don't need to give birth to our own. (I am not arguing that this is right, but it is the current truth)

"Traditionally Masculine" men seem to be doing just fine finding relationships.

source? I think this varies wildly depending on where you live. Most of the macho dudes I know are single/divorced and in low-income labor jobs. But where I live you need a higher income to afford basic housing, etc., so it's the "softer" desk job guys with people skills that get laid. I can't speak for other parts of the country where the opposite may very well be true, however.
